I think so. Hands go from soaking wet to bone dry in a matter of seconds. With no rubbing. Outstanding

Speaking of Dyson

Male contraceptive ‘bath’ device wins Dyson award

The groundbreaking device promises to give men a reliable, pain-free form of birth control by using heat on their private parts.

A groundbreaking form of male contraception which uses a kind of “testicle bath” to prevent pregnancy has been unveiled in Germany.
Rebecca Weiss, an industrial design graduate from the University of Munich, took out the top prize at Germany’s James Dyson Awards for the ultrasound-based contraception for men.

Named COSO, the device uses ultrasound deep heat to cause sperm mobility in the testicles to be modified and temporarily cease.

It means the female egg cannot be fertilised by sperm during sex, with users simply needing to use the device every few months for the contraception to take effect.


The hormone free and reversible contraception, which involves putting the testicles inside an ultrasonic ‘bath’, must be used for the first time under doctor’s supervision and takes two weeks to take effect.

COSO’s contraceptive effects last a maximum of six months from the last time of use.

When I was little I was absolutely blown away by 2 inventions.
The video recorder. The fact that you could tape TV programmes and watch them again was something this 12 year old in 1979 couldn’t believe how brilliant it was. I used at audio tape tv football on my cassette recorder propped up on books . Couldn’t believe you could now record the vision.
The other one I was amazed at was the microwave oven. The fact that this box could cook food in minutes astounded me. Easily pleased I know.

Human didn’t invent fire, it’s always been there, we just learned how to utilise it for our benefit.

The answer for me is the printing press, books became cheaper, people learned how to read them, knowledge could spread further and faster then before, that spread of knowledge lead to more leaning and more knowledge
